@Esa-Andstén said in Ability to edit the sleep time:
Hi! New forum user here. I’ve had the Suunto Race S for almost a year now and like it very much. However there are a couple of missing features/options in the Suunto ecosystem. One big omission is that there’s no way to edit sleep times. I’ve had many occasions, where the watch thinks that I’m sleeping when I’m lying on the couch watching tv. Then it reports that I’ve had 11 hours of sleep that night
It’s frustrating that you can’t cut these obvious misinterpretations away. I think this should be trivial to implement. Even Polar has had this option for years now
Not to make excuses for Suunto, but it’s easy for someone who has not seen the code to assume any feature or bug is “trivial,” not understanding underlying factors in code. Moreover, typically it’s less “it’s hard” and more “it’s not a priority.” Teams are tasked to do many things, generally implementing new features and fixing old features, and how they prioritize things can seem weird for those of us with pet issues.
For example, I wish Suunto would highly improve their export to Apple Health, which I’m written about elsewhere. If Suunto sent sleep data to Apple Health, for example, then perhaps I could use some other tool to edit/analyze this, which would (in a roundabout way) be a workaround to your issue. I imagine Suunto sees things as “people should primarily use Suunto app” so my desire is likely lower on their priority list. All I can do is send feature requests to Suunto support (which this forum is not a substitute for), discuss things here for more visiability, and, ultimately, use other devices if Suunto does not meet my needs.
As you may have seen, your response to this thread comes 4 years since the last post, and sleep issues have been a concern for a long time.
